The DynamicMaps Team have spent time working with the Ordnance Survey ZoomStack dataset. Testing using the GeoPackage format, via a Vector Tile Service and using the PostGIS database with a GeoServer WMS. This work now means that our webGIS – MapThat – is compatible with OS ZoomStack!
If you want to utilise the OS Zoomstack data within your web or desktop GIS, then these are 3 great White Papers to get you started:
- Exploring OS Zoomstack – Part 1: Vector Tiles https://www.cadlinecommunity.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/360000747077-Exploring-OS-Zoomstack-Part-1-Vector-Tiles
- Exploring OS Zoomstack – Part 2: PostGIS and GeoServer https://www.cadlinecommunity.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/360000767357-Exploring-OS-Zoomstack-Part-2-PostGIS-and-GeoServer
- Exploring OS Zoomstack – Part 3: GeoPackage https://www.cadlinecommunity.co.uk/hc/en-us/articles/360000782437-Exploring-OS-Zoomstack-Part-3-GeoPackage
Why not utilise Open Source technology to maximize your use of OS ZoomStack data:
-
Connect your GeoServer Instance to OS Zoomstack via a PostGIS Database. Then use the OS Style Files (SLD’s) to create a high impact baselayer
-
Access OS ZoomStack via desktop GIS (QGIS) using PostGIS, Vector Tile Services and GeoPackage datasets. Styling the layers using the Ordnance Survey QML Style files
- Finally, publish your GeoServer WMS within MapThat webGIS to enable all users to access OS ZoomStack
Why not try it for yourself: TryMapThat
